Belkin BOOST↑CHARGE™ PRO 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad with MagSafe

I purchased a Belkin BOOST↑CHARGE™ PRO 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad with MagSafe a few weeks ago, it works just fine with charging my watch and my AirPods, but it won't charge my phone. I just have a regular case on the phone, do I need a special case for it to work?

Thank you.

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 16

2024 Lincoln Nautilus built-in wireless charging pad not working I have a 2024 Lincoln Nautilus with the built-in Qi wireless charging pad for smart phones (picture below in front of the cup holders). My iPhone 15 Pro Max will not charge. It begins charging but stops. I have taken it out of the thin Spigen MagSafe case I have but that didn't work. I'm curious if anyone has a solution to this issue. Would adding a MagSafe ring to the charger would help (photo attached). For context, I've read where this is an issue in Lexus vehicles as well. Thanks!

MagSafe charging only works with optimized charging OFF when using UAG case I’ve been using the same Apple MagSafe charger since it first launched couple years ago. And I recently upgraded to 15 Pro Max and got the UAG Monarch Pro Kevlar case for it. I have encountered problem with MagSafe charging with this UAG case. I noticed the phone was charging a couple minutes and stopped charging suddenly. I tried the same phone/charger with my my other CASETiFY case and do not have such issue. Tried to update to 17.0.3 but no luck solving the issue. End up I have to set the Charging Optimization to OFF, then the iPhone with UAG case was able to be charged without stopping after a couple minutes. Even so it is a lot slower than with other or no cases. Anyone has similar charging issue with UAG cases or know the charging optimization power between different settings?

Iphone 13 Pro Max doesn't care on QI wireless chargers with thin Apple cases or others... So we have both a iPhone X and an iPhone 11 Pro Max that will both charge in my new 2023 Genesis GV80's built in wireless QI charging pad. My new iPhone 13 Pro Max will not charge in the same car with a case on. If I remove the case and spend 15 minutes moving it around a millimeter at a time it sometimes will lock on to charge. It behaves the same on a Mophie QI wireless pad in my home. It does charge on another unit in the house a Belkin Speaker with QI pad. So, my troubleshooting has led me to a couple of conclusions. First the camera bump on the 13Pro Max is now creating enough of a gap between the phone and charge pad to render the feature useless. Also moving the magnets to accommodate the equally useless MagSafe charge device Apple probably developed after they found the camera bumps were gonna be trouble! This makes alignment very hard with third part QI wireless chargers as well! I've found enough other posts online to know this indeed an issue sure to be ignored by Apples "your not holding it right" team of denial genius pros. Has anyone come across a workaround that doesn't involve the usual "did you try resetting, lard, soft etc." I've tried all the usual suspects, nothing helps. I also tried a Samsung S21 and S22 in my vehicle today while at a best buy. Both would charge with a case on.

Yes, you need a MagSafe case.
